Stripping things back and dusting off reliable gear has led to monster hits this
year: Just take a listen to the new Wax 20002, almost anything Levon Vincent has
put this name to or the host of releases on the always impressive Ostgut Ton.
Jay Ahern, one-half of techno duo Hauntologists, obviously takes inspiration
from the aforementioned, and his new foray into production under the guise of
Cheap and Deep Productions reveals an artist that transforms his influences into
something new. Title track "Words, Breaths and Pauses" is a stunning production
geared for the darkest of warehouses and the biggest of dance floors. Simple
repetitions of the punchy synth lines layered over the chugging percussion let
time and space melt away, and the creepily soothing vocals by Uta Alder
punctuate the hypnotic vibe of the eleven minute track. Easily one to play from
start to finish, it's a complete monster in all the right places, but doesn't
rely on flashy production to get the job done. Flipside burner "Tight" picks up
where the A-side left off, with plucked synths marrying nicely to staccato toms,
until the composition lets loose and reveals itself to be a jacking techno
masterpiece. Lastly, "Darkroom Beats" brings closure to the simple yet effective
trio. It's a largely loop-based track that shows hints of what Ahern brings to
the Hauntologists' production style, and underscores the feeling here that
comparatively laid-back production is currently just as relevant as its more
ostentatious competition in the world of techno. Massive Support!!
DRUM was nuked for wrong encoding. Enjoy this proper!
